Newcastle is famous for its cold snaps and heavy gritting. Road salt is highly corrosive and can lead to rust on the undercarriage, brake lines, and suspension. When you're buying a used car in Newcastle, you should inspect the car for corrosion. 

You can ask the dealer: "Can I see the report for the underseal and brake lines?" Make sure the car's "bones" are as good as its bodywork.
